The flood is draining now

But it’s all the same

Echoes in my brain

 

Growing underground

But I’m safe and sound

Can I outlive the shame?

 

That dream is buried now

Dragged from the clouds

Is that my spade?

 

It’s just a breathing space

Remember this is not a race

Have I ever given chase?

 

Stared Fortuna in the face

Wrong time, Wrong place

Yet Atlas’s burden hasn’t swayed

 

Tossed and turned by waves afar

Floating in a sea of calm

Spurred on by the seagull's song
